T
he UK property market in 2025 continues
to exhibit strong positives, signalling a
healthy and stabilising environment for
buyers, sellers, and investors alike. Several key
factors underpin this optimistic outlook, from
renewed house price growth to government
interventions aimed at tackling supply
challenges.
HOUSE PRICES SHOW RENEWED
GROWTH AND STABILITY
After a brief slowdown earlier this year, caused
largely by the end of the stamp duty holiday, the
housing market has rebounded with renewed
vigour. In May 2025, average house prices across
the UK rose by 0.5%, bringing the average value
to just over £273,000. This marks a solid 3.5%
increase compared to the same month last year,
suggesting that the market has largely absorbed
the short-term shock and is on a steady upward
trajectory once more. Experts attribute this
rebound to sustained demand and buyer
confidence returning as market uncertainties
ease.
FALLING MORTGAGE RATES
IMPROVE AFFORDABILITY
One of the biggest boosts to the property market
has come from a gradual decline in mortgage
interest rates. After a series of Bank of England
base rate hikes over previous years, rates are now
expected to peak and begin easing, with
projections indicating a fall to around 3.75% by
the end of 2025. This decrease significantly
improves borrowing conditions, particularly for
first-time buyers who often face affordability
hurdles. Additionally, lenders have become more
flexible, easing restrictions and streamlining
application processes, which further helps to
open the door to home ownership for many.
GOVERNMENT COMMITMENT TO
INCREASING HOUSING SUPPLY
The government continues to prioritise housing
supply to address the chronic shortage of homes
across the country. A significantly large fund has
been earmarked specifically for boosting
housebuilding efforts, aiming to deliver 1.5 million
new homes by 2029. This ambitious target
reflects recognition of the importance of
increasing supply to meet demand and ease
pressure on prices. Beyond funding, recent
legislative changes such as the Leasehold and
Freehold Reform Act 2024 seek to improve
conditions for leaseholders, ensuring greater
fairness and transparency within the property
market. These measures are helping to create a
more balanced and sustainable housing
ecosystem.
